Is Nascar Trying To End Jimmie Johnson's Dominance?

It seems that Nascar could be changing how they give out points as the 2011 Nascar season approaches. Now almost everyone will agree that the point system should have been scrapped a long time ago. If changes are made were they designed to slow down Jimmie Johnson dominance in the sport. Johnson has dominated the Chase and has won five championships in a row.

Getting a new points system will not really bug Jimmie Johnson that much. Him and his team will just adjust and go after another championship, because that is what he does. Many people think that the change comes at a weird time. Did Nascar do it to stem the tide that Jimmie Johnson has built? Many think they did, but in the end we will see how this all plays out. I think it will have little effect on Jimmie Johnson.

Jeff Gordon Sneaky Devil, And Wins At Talladega


Jeff Gordon has learn a few things in his time as a Nascar Car Champion and driver. He has watched Dale Earnhardt and Mark Martin so he has learned a few things about sandbagging or waiting for your opportunity. Gordon only lead one lap all race long at Talladega, but it was the one that meant the most the final lap. Gordon now has the points lead and maybe tough to unseat anytime soon. I like the position Gordon is in right now.

Jimmie Johnson is second in the points while Clint Bowyer is third. Dale Earnhardt Jr and Martin Truex Jr had engine issues and didn't finish the race. It's a shame as both maybe could have won. I guess there is next year for them.
